I have worked for about 13 years implementing financial systems as a Business Consultant/Analyst and Project Manager, I am effectively a systems accountant but qualified by experience. I became self-employed this year and I am wondering if I might do some kind of qualification to bolster my CV a bit. Also I'm sure there are huge gaps in my knowledge as I have just picked it all up as I go.
I have worked in all sorts of businesses but I would like to target consultancies as I like this sort of work best. I work with lots of FDs, FCs and Managment accountants in this area so I guess I could ask their advice but I don't want to flag up the fact that I am not qualified (though I never pretend to be and whenever I say it people look amazed as I do talk a good game!)
The two I was looking at are the DipFM or maybe a CIMA qualification (the certificate to start). Would these be appropriate? Not really sure about all the different qualification and what is percieved as being most valuable in my sort of area.
Many thanks in advance for your help!

Calling accountants - can you help me decide which (if any) qualification do to?
